Thom Yorke - Black Swan

Released: 2006
Download It



It might be a bit Kid-A lite, but this is an improvement over the Radiohead-does-Radiohead pastiche of Hail To the Thief.

More solo albums please Thom.

The Smiths ft. Sandie Shaw - Hand In Glove

Released: 1984
Download It



Only Moz would stalk faded 60s icon Sandie Shaw with incessant letters and postcards until she finally agreed to sing on a track with his up-and-coming band.

The result? An improvement on the original!

Public Image - Theme

Delegated Review (by Dylan)
Released: 1978
Download It



I first heard this a month ago, and it speaks volumes that it never even crossed my mind to listen to it again. While Johnny Lydon and the lads were obviously pushing boundaries with their post-punk-art-rock, it doesn't engage me on any level.

There's no better way to describe this other than as a 9-minute dirge.

It's better than the Sex Pistols though.

Hank Williams Jr. - A Country Boy Can Survive



Released: Dunno
Download it (3.9 Mb)

Short Version:
If you are in the octagon when this song plays, know that you are about to get fucked up.

Long Version:
As incongruous as it may seem to hear this country song blare out during Matt Hughes's entrance in the UFC, once you couple it with Hughes's 39 - 4 - 0 record you soon come to realize that this apparently hokey song actually signals that your ass now belongs to Matt Hughes.
